In the following question, six sentences are given. These sentences may or may not form a contextually meaningful sequence. You need to rearrange these sentences to create a coherent paragraph. Sentence (F) is already fixed as the last sentence in the rearranged paragraph.
Sentences:
(A) However, the old policy’s extensions beyond March 2021, especially the current six-month stretch, are not as understandable.
(B) The last trade policy was introduced in 2015.
(C) The Government will release a new foreign trade policy in October.
(D) It could include measures to help push up goods and services exports as well as rein in the runaway import bill.
(E) When its five-year term ended a week after the national lockdown to curb the pandemic, it was extended for a year considering the extenuating circumstances.
(F) Beginning the new policy in the middle of a financial year, unlike the traditional clean slate in a new fiscal year, is not ideal.
Question: Which of the following sentences will be the THIRD sentence in the correct rearranged sequence?

Question

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The sentence (B) "The last trade policy was introduced in 2015." logically starts the paragraph by introducing the timeline of the previous policy.

2. Sentence (E) follows as it explains what happened when the five-year term ended, mentioning the extension due to the pandemic.

3. Sentence (A) comes next, discussing the extensions beyond March 2021, which relates to the previous sentence about the extension.

4. Sentence (C) then fits as it announces the upcoming new policy release.

5. Sentence (D) elaborates on what the new policy might include.

6. Sentence (F) is fixed as the last sentence, commenting on the timing of the new policy's start.

Hence, the correct sequence is: B → E → A → C → D → F.

Therefore, the THIRD sentence in this sequence is (B) "The last trade policy was introduced in 2015."
